Tips and tricks to add to your homemade latte

By Morgan Heilman

At-home matcha is a trendy recipe right now, one that is easy with minimal effort. You can make a simple matcha or you can spice it up with variations. 

Simple matcha: The basic matcha latte requires a few ingredients: matcha powder, milk of your choice and a frother. 

Add your matcha powder to a glass with a dash of milk, then use the frother to stir up the tea. If you prefer it cold, add some ice before adding the rest of the milk. 

If you need to switch up your drink a bit, you can try these variations:

• Adding syrup flavors like vanilla, coconut or marshmallow to make the drink a bit sweeter in taste. 
• Fresh fruit can also make your latte a bit more fun. Mash raspberries, blueberries or strawberries, and mix it in with the milk to incorporate new flavors into your latte. 
• A topping of sweet cream is another way to top off your drink with a frothy goodness.
